i saved it, but it was dwnloaded from an email, the email was corrupted and i didnt realise, i saved it every 15 mins.
but i was saving it to a corrupted file, so it just destroyed it everytime i did |

I don' know, some how it did. It was saving onto the email, and then the email was corrupted. so basically i saved it all the time onto a dwnloaded file on an email. but when i switched my comp off. The email went, and it wasnt on my hard drive on my comp |

Well now I am for sure confused. So you saved the original email and then saved ontop of that? |

wouldnt this "email" still be on your email providers servers, emails dont delete themselfs unless you tell them to, or they are in a junk/bin folder |

ahhh don't ask me, my dad is an expert on computors.
when u dwnload an email, it comes up with a file saying "save" "open"? right? well i clicked save, it didnt work, i then clicked open, and my work came up, i worked on it for 7 hours, saving it, my computor crashed, and then "recovery" network tried to save my work, but it was doing it AS i was working, so everytime it saved some, it deleted my new bits. |

Well saving it should have stored a copy somewhere on your computer. I wouldn't see why not. |
